With a mix of pickle poetry and pickle facts, four different families from different cultures make different pickles. In the end, they come together to share what they have made. Sprinkled throughout are facts about the pickling process, different kinds of vegetables that can be pickled, and how they taste.

This is a bright, fun book with collage style illustrations. It is fun to celebrate something as simple as the pickle.

The people depicted are from a variety of ethnicities.
